My daughter, a genetics student, was just given office space at her college's lab. It's her first office, and we want some genetics, physics, chemistry or biology related quotes to put on the walls. Any ideas?

Physics is Phun! Nitrous Oxide is no laughing matter! (it's a gas,not matter,get it??? I'm cracking myself up, here.)

1) To hell with the birds and bees. Tell me more about k-mesons and quarks. 2) Why do I get stuck with all the proto-simians for lab partners? 3) The last couple that bonded in Chemistry class managed to blow up the lab. 4) Whose night is it to add chlorine to the gene pool? 5) That forensics guy gives me the creeps. He keeps asking for DNA samples. 6) Evolve at your own risk. 7) Lets see your double helix twist bend space and time.

"You can have your own truth, but not your own facts!" "The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not "Eureka!" but rather "That's funny ..." "Science does not promise absolute truth, nor does it consider that such a thing necessarily exists. Science does not even promise that everything in the Universe is amenable to the scientific process." "My studies in Speculative philosophy, metaphysics, and science are all summed up in the image of a mouse called man running in and out of every hole in the Cosmos hunting for the Absolute Cheese." "There are no sects in geometry."

"The entire universe is in a state of entropy. This means that change is both inevitable and unavoidable. Staying the same is an impossibility. The best we can hope for is to choose wisely the speed and direction of each of our next changes." "The absence of proof is not the same as the proof of absence." S.E.T.I. "No one person can ever change the truth, but the truth, once learned, can and will change the person." Buddha. "The hurrier I go, the behinder I get" "Plan Ahe- ad"

"Ouch!" Sir Isaac Newton

"Every action has an equal and opposite reaction" Meaning, be careful what you throw out into the world, there will be consequences! :)

It's kind of more math-y but I saw this on my friend's shirt: i2 (squared) Keeping it real!

"Evolution is God's way of issuing upgrades." "What did one Drosophila say to the other Drosophila? Your human is down!" Chemistry There are usually posters or such available annually for Mole Day [October 23, commemorating Avogadro's Number (6.02 x 10^23)]. There's also a slew of Mole jokes, like: http://www.moleday.org/htdocs/mole_jokes.html
